About Karen
Experience: 10 yrs
For 15 years I was a Teacher assistant with varied age groups, kindergarten through high school. I was also an assistant in self-contained classes for the multiple disabled and an Instructional Assistant to a Special Education blind student in a multi-handicapped classroom for 7 years. I have been challenged to be creative and most importantly, patient. I'm also a proud mother of two grown boys.

I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Karen. I have known Karen for forty years and found her to be a reliable and conscientious friend. Karen is my eldest child's godmother and my children think of her as family. She has shown herself to be positive roll model in my daughters' lives. Karen always made it priority to attend their sporting events and recognize their achievements and milestones. For fifteen years, Karen worked with students with autism and with visual impairments. These rewarding experiences proved her to be nurturing and compassionate. Karen has consistently treated her students and colleagues with respect.
